UP woman chops off husband's genitals for 'staying with his second wife'

Muzaffarnagar: A woman in Uttar Pradesh chopped off her husband's genitals for allegedly neglecting her and "staying with his second wife", police said on Thursday.

The incident took place in Muzaffarnagar's Mimlana area on Wednesday. The man was rushed to a hospital in a very serious condition, they said.

"The man had married the second time with consent of his first wife, as they did not have a child. The second wife had recently given birth to a child," Station House Officer, Kotwali police station, Anil Kaperwan said, according to news agency PTI.

He had been staying at his second wife's residence for quite some time. "This apparently angered the woman," the policeman said.
